I was driving up to my mothers house in MA and was following this very car for at least 40 minutes trying to figure out what the hell it was. I floored it in my swapped Impreza and he took off like a rocket. It was raining so I let off as did he. I promptly looked up WTF a Shogun Festiva was.

There were a limited run of these cars called the SHOgun. There is a guy on car domain I saw a while back that had one supercharged and making about those numbers. I bet thats insane!!

Of the real original shoguns made.. there were only 7 built!!!
here is some info...
The SHOgun
1990 SHOgun - side view

1990 SHOgun - side view

In 1990, Chuck Beck of Special Editions and Rick Titus took seven Festivas, gutted the interiors, and mounted Ford SHO 3.0 L V6's behind the front seats in mid-engine rear wheel drive configuration. There were substantial cosmetic and mechanical changes, including relocating the gas tank to the front of the car, structural bracing and improvements to the chassis, adding wider wheel arches to accommodate a wider stance and larger tires, and a complete redesign of the suspension. These changes resulted in a car that could travel the ¼ mile (0.4 km) in 12.9 seconds at 100.9 mph (162 km/h), and could achieve a lateral acceleration figure ranging from .95 to 1.04 g [1]. Of the 7, Jay Leno owns the silver one, which is number 003 [2].

But the original pocket rocket was the Renault R5 Turbo.

It was years ahead of the Shogun Festiva, and was probably the inspiration for the Shogun project.

Well thank God for that, 'cause if I wasn't, this would probably have never worked.

Ah the Pinto.

Maybe the only car ever built that was more aerodynamic going backward than going forward.

But a Pinto Wagon with a 302 V8 is sweet.
